Dyarchy, also spelled diarchy, system of double government introduced by the Government of India Act (1919) for the provinces of British India. The principle of dyarchy was a division of the executive branch of each provincial government into authoritarian and popularly responsible sections.

In the provinces, the Act aimed to prepare Indians for ‘responsible government’ through the system of dyarchy. This system of dyarchy was abolished by the Government of India Act (1935, implemented 1937), which gave the provincial assemblies full responsibility for government.

In 1765, Robert Clive formed a dual government in Bengal and it continued until 1772. The administration of Bengal was split into two parts under this system—Diwani and Nizamat. Diwani means the corporation was granted the right to raise revenue, and Nizamat means that nawab was given administrative powers.

A level of security that requires two administrators to authorise a change such as the creation of a user or the amendment of a payment limit. If one administrator makes a change, another must authorise the change before it takes effect.

dual policy is a system where governance of a country run parallely by two governments.

Dual government was a type of government in which, the British were in charge of collecting revenue meanwhile the Nawabs was in charge of law and order. It was a very unsatisfactory way of governing as neither the British nor the nawabs had the complete responsibility.

Dual Government means double system of administration. The system of Dual Government was introduced in Bengal by Robert Clive of British East India Company. Under this system, though the administration theoretically divided between the Company and the Nawab, the whole power was actually in the hands of the Company.

Their final humiliation came in 1765 when the Mughal Emperor Shah Alam granted the diwani of Bengal – the right to collect the land revenue – to the East India Company. From then on, the diwani became the main source of British revenue from India.

Dual federalism, also known as layer-cake federalism or divided sovereignty, is a political arrangement in which power is divided between the federal and state governments in clearly defined terms, with state governments exercising those powers accorded to them without interference from the federal government.

As a theory, dual federalism holds that the federal and state governments both have power over individuals but that power is limited to separate and distinct spheres of authority, and each government is neither subordinate to nor liable to be deprived of its authority by the other.

Dual federalism is based on the relatively optimistic belief that a clear division between federal and state authority can, and does, exist. This theory states that authority between the two levels of U.S. government, national and state, could be treated equally, live together equally, and hold roughly equal authority.
